    Crab Foo Young (one coconut rice and one jasmine rice)
    Tamiko B.

    Final reserve seating 8:45 PM as closing time is listed as 9 PM. Key is to know your order as the chef wants to go home. The cuisine was outstanding. We had the libation flight and the family meal for two. Photos of all we consumed and two out of three libations from the cocktail flight. OUTSTANDING! *****

    Super tasty food and delicious cocktails! This spot offers lip-smacking good small to large plates in a casual setting. Hubs and I went for the "Family Meal" for 2- a good and very filling deal of 2 small plates, 1 big plate, 1 noodle, bottomless rice, and donuts or Jello shots. We also each got a Cocktail Flight of 3 yummy, thoughtful, heady, and full-size drinks. While everything from our order was very good, standouts were the Sizzling Sisig, Chili Pan Mee, and the Coconut Rice. Everything's so good, you'll be oinking and mooing! NOTES/TIPS: *Wheelchair-accessible. *Excellent down-to-earth service. *Menu periodically changes.

    So great! Service was impeccable, and the food is absolutely fantastic. I love the ambiance as well - very fun, colorful, a bit loud, with pop music. Favorite dishes include the sizzling sisig, whole fish, and the green papaya salad. While the spareribs fell off the bone, they were a bit chewy, which was an odd paradox. The noodles also could have used a bit more spice. Small thing, but I wish they had a hook for my purse.

    Oo this is an interesting spot. I've been wanting to try more Filipino foods in the city, and this was one option and came up a couple times. Came here for brunch and this restaurant is a bit grunge (in an intentional way). The sink is duct-taped, and their expanded seating area in the back is a bit dark and cold (and feels a bit like you're outside?). The restaurant front is a bit hard to find and very unassuming. I ordered the sigsig with garlic rice and also tried the khao soi and pan mee noodles. Everything was super flavorful, but I was a bit disappointed by the portion sizes for the price AND the fact that the sigsig didn't come with rice? It's an extremely salty and overwhelming dish without it, so I highly recommend getting that as a side. My partner really enjoyed the food FWIW. Also tried the cilantro soda out of curiosity and I think it is worth skipping. It's kind of like a sprite with cilantro leaves in it, and not worth it for $9. We were able to make reservations easily and there's a brunch-specific menu on the weekends. It wasn't overwhelmingly busy on a Sunday peak brunch hours but fairly lively. Service was friendly, and food comes out as it's ready (but our food came altogether)

    Service was a mixed bag of good and bad, food was just alright and dessert were forgettable. Their NA drinks are better than the actual cocktails. Sisig is worth coming back for but not enough for a full meal.

    Shrimp spring rolls

    We did the combo on the day and that was probably the best value for what we got. We also got the drinks combo which was ideal. We got quite a bit of different foods and it wasn't even really busy yet but our food took quite a while to come out after the apps and first couple mains. The ambiance of the place is nice and it's quite unique. However I wasn't very wowed by the flavors of the food. They were all good but just that. I think it does appeal to a lighter taste and would be a good exploration into the cuisine but not really for someone who's familiar in my opinion

    Been there for a friend's Birthday party- It is good for bigger groups-They have a reasonalble menu for parties. Place has great vibe and ambiance is nice too- Had a great time- Serving staff is awesome too and they really take care of the party. Food was good. Totally recommend!! We all even got complimentary shots!! Shrimp spring rolls were the best-For party of 20 we had two small plates-one main entree and Noodles with two kind of desserts!

    Fantastic food. Big fan of chef Cohen and this spot doesn't disappoint. Big r&b vibes with famous pan Asian type style foods. Ie- sisig, Bo Kho, hainanese duck. Must order... P&k wings We were late with our resy and they were able to move things around and get us seated. Much love to the Pig & Khao crew

    This Thai/Filipino spot on the LES feels like a party, but with flavorful, interesting dishes This Southeast Asian restaurant led by the talented chef Leah Cohen is an excellent pick for a lively meal with friends. Be sure to order the whole fried fish, P&K wings ,Khao Soi, Hainanese Duck and finish with the traditional dessert Turon. What we tried Drinks Fool me twice Sweet and sour cilantro soda Appetizers P&K Chicken wings Shrimp & pork spring rolls Main course Khao soi Whole fried fish Hainanese Duck Desserts Turon Stop by and dine in today Love the spot and the food is super scrumptious

    I went here the day after Christmas around 7:30pm. It was 7 adults and two children. The children were under 6 years old. We wanted to do the family style dinner but that's only up to 8 ppl. Because the restaurant counts the amount of ppl at the table, we were one person over and could not do the family style dinner. We were a bit disappointed especially given the children were so young and did not eat anything at dinner. But we just ended up ordering individual meals. The food was good. The service was ok as the waitress seemed to be bothered to be at work.

    curried beef skewers
    Alice Z.

    Food: 4.5/5 | Service: 4.5/5 | Experience: 4.5/5 Seating at least at the front of the restaurant is a bit tight. My party of 2 ordered the sizzling sisig, curried beef skewers, the coco rice, and the Hainanese duck. The sisig was the best thing I had; it was salty, texturally interesting, and tart from the squeeze of lime we put. The skewers were merely ok; I wasn't too impressed by the taste. The rice was creamy and rich and a bit sweet. By the time the duck arrived, we were full, but had to at least try the duck; it was perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and the portion size was fair for the price.

    Pork Belly Adobo and Coco Rice
    Morgan Z.

    I was craving a little Filipino comfort food so I stopped in to Pig and Khao on a rainy day and I'm glad I did! The inside was really cute and definitely a great spot to go for groups or for a date night. The servers were really nice and did ask before ordering if I had any dietary accommodations that needed to be made. I ordered the pork belly adobo and coconut rice. The pork belly was both tender and crispy and full of classic adobo flavors. I loved it paired with coconut rice. I will most definitely be back here with a group so I can try more of the small and large plates. The sinigang shrimp looked so good and I can't wait to try that dish in the future!

    banh xeo: good
    Josh B.

    Great brunch spot. Came here with a friend on a Saturday morning a little before 11am and was seated immediately. We started with a Vietnamese Iced Coffee to get our caffeine fix in. We got the Sizzling Corned Beef Hash and Banh Xeo to share, which were both good. Glad we got to try this place!

    Ask the Community - Pig and Khao

    Is this place appropriate to have my two kids along for an early 5:00 dinner?

    Early should be fine for kids. Later in the evening it is quite packed and more lively with loud music so I wouldn't recommend.

    I couldn't find sisig on their menu. Did they get rid of it? Does anyone remember the name of their watermelon cocktail drink?

    It's on the appetizer menu now. Unsure if the portions changed

    Can we order your Restaurant Week delivery on Yelp? What's the menu?

    I don't know the answer to this, but I can vouch for the Goldbelly nationwide DIY prep kit delivery service that they participate in. In my Yelp writeup I discuss the various dishes I received.

    Do they do restaurant week for winter 2020?

    Yes! We went last night for restaurant week $42/person

    Are there a good number of gluten-free options on the menu?

    Yes a lot of the meat and vegetables don't have gluten

    Does Pig & Khao have happy hour?? Any details on it?

    They do not.

    Peanut allergy food options?

    A large portion of our menu does not contain peanuts.

    Do they serve the Pad Thai Pancake all day everyday?

    The Padcakes are only served at dinner. They are available from 5-7pm 7 days a weeks in limited quantities, we recommend coming in early to make sure you get one before they are gone.

Not all midtown restaurants stay open past 10, and I was relieved to find their kitchen going strong at that hour, as well as their dining space, which was full. Turned out it was for good reason because their food was delicious. My friend and I were hoping to eat at a restaurant nearby specializing in crab, but they closed much earlier. Fortunately for us, SaiTong's menu had plenty of crab on it, and we decided to double up and make each of our entree's a crab one. The black spaghetti crab curry and crab curry noodles advertised themselves as being very different dishes in both presentation and ingredients but ended up tasting kind of similar. One was topped with deep fried crab and used a different type of noodle than the other, but the sauces were so similar. This is not to say that they didn't taste good, but I would've preferred more variance. I'm glad we got an order of papaya salad to cut the richness of the other dishes, and I also appreciated it had a nice level of heat in it. Our servers were really friendly without being overbearing, and let us linger for a bit even after we paid the bill, as it was their last seating for the evening. There are so many excellent Thai restaurants in the city and I'd put SaiTong firmly in the category of perfectly solid spots to get your Thai fix, with some special dishes on the chef's menu worth checking out.

Prices are a bit above average for the portion size, but justified by the area. We both enjoyed our dishes; the flavors were on point! Then, for my friend's birthday, they gave us mochi ice cream and a card signed by the staff! That was a nice touch that overrode the restaurant week debacle. Service was fantastic.

    Stopped by The Thonglor New York for dinner and ordered the pad kra pow with a fried egg on top…read more The egg is definitely a must for this dish! As a Thai person myself and as indicated on their menu, it's the way most Thais eat this dish :) The fried egg added that rich, runny element that really brings everything together. The veggies were nicely sautéed, fresh and still crisp, and there was a good amount of ground pork, so the dish felt hearty and satisfying rather than rice-heavy. Overall, the flavors were solid and comforting, though I personally found it just a touch sweeter than I prefer for pad kra pow. Even so, it definitely hit the spot and was very satisfying for a late-night craving. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience pleasant overall. One thing to keep in mind though is timing - if you're dining closer to closing, you may feel a bit rushed toward the end of your meal. All in all, a solid option for Thai food! I'd come back again (probably earlier next time) and would be interested in trying more dishes from the menu.
